According to The Sun, the unnamed woman had complained the aircraft was too hot before proceeding to open the emergency exit.
“A passenger of flight PS6212 Antalya-Kyiv illegally opened the emergency exit of the plane after it stopped near gate 11 of terminal D and went on to its wing,” the UIA said in a statement.
“The passenger was flying on a charter vacation with her husband and children."

The passenger's antics caused quite the stir, as the chief pilot immediately called aviation security, border service, the airport's medical center, and even the police to the scene.
Other passengers also said they saw the woman climb onto the plane's wing when the plane landed, confirming that she walked up and down it. Local media also reported her children pointed at her from the inside and shouted "that's our mom!"
A video of the incident has since been shared on social media, with many users stunned by the passenger's rebellious behavior. The airline said the woman would pay an "exceptionally high financial penalty" for her actions.
Despite her bizarre conduct, authorities confirmed that she had tested negative for both drugs and alcohol in her bloodstream. The carrier has now banned her from flying with them in the future, saying the woman “was blacklisted for gross violation of aviation safety rules and behavior onboard.”
